"The owner is in a good mood."
The man stood in the sun with his arms folded across his chest, a smile on his lips, looking handsome and cool.
He looked at Xie Purou and Yue Xiwen, but his gaze fell on the stroller behind them, his eyes flashing with an unfathomable light.
Yue Xiwen got goosebumps all over her body when he looked at her.
Xie Purou was completely unaware and instead introduced them enthusiastically: "This is my goddaughter, all three of them. And my good sister, Yue Xiwen."
She introduced the man as well: "Xiwen, this is Qiu Kan, the commander of the Ninth Base."
The smile in Xie Purou's eyes deepened when she saw Qiu Kan. She was just thinking about where to earn some points to open various stores, and now the big fat sheep has been delivered to her door.
"Captain Qiu, are you here to buy some goods today?"
Qiu Kan looked towards the crib and saw three very cute little babies.
"How about you send the child back first, and then we can find a place to sit down and talk?"
"Okay." Xie Pu Rou was thinking the same thing.
Usually, the base commander would look for her with a big order, not as simple as buying two bottles of water. The right thing to do was to sit down and talk.
"Xiwen, I'll take you back first."
Yue Xiwen nodded and continued walking, pushing the child.
Xie Purou also followed, mainly because Yue Xiwen was still a novice who had never taken care of children, and she was worried about taking three children out for a walk.
Qiu Kan also followed, walking silently behind Xie Purou.
"Why are you following us? Find a place to sit first, I'll come to find you later." Xie Pu Rou said with a smile.
Qiu Kan raised his eyebrows slightly and replied, "I think the air here is quite good. I want to take a walk."
They walked very quickly along the way. With Xie Purou's help, the two of them had common topics, so they started chatting.
Sometimes they talked about the development of the base, sometimes they talked about the changes in the B&B. Yue Xiwen is worthy of being Yue Xiwen, she has really strong social skills.
"Okay, I'm here. You guys can go about your business." When they arrived downstairs of the residential complex where Yue Xiwen lived, she took the initiative to say that she would just bring the child upstairs.
Xie Purou didn't refuse, "Okay, then you better be careful."
After watching her go upstairs, M80 was sure that they had entered the room before Xie Pu Rou left.
A man and a woman were walking on the street. Qiu Kan, who was not wearing the base uniform, looked younger, with a serious face that rarely showed any expression.
Qiu Kan took the initiative to speak: "Your grilled squid here is quite delicious. The only drawback is that if I go back, I can't eat it whenever I want."
Xie Purou gave a straightforward solution: "Then you can eat more here. As long as you stay here, you can eat every day. When you get tired of it, you won't miss it when you go back."
"But I heard that you have a subway station here, which can reach other bases in just a few minutes. I'm jealous." Qiu Kan said with a blank expression and a hint of envy in his tone.
"Puchi" Xie Pu Rou laughed out loud, and really wanted to know how he could say it in this tone with a serious face.
"I'm in charge of that base now. Are you tired of being the base commander?" The meaning in her words was self-evident.
"But my base is not a private one, it's an official branch base!"
Qiu Kan lowered his head, knowing that he could not compete with others on this point.
Xie Pu Rou now doesn’t understand why the Le’an base can be lit up, and she can’t guarantee anything.
What if she gets to his base and the official base is also lit up by her? I can't just become a local tyrant in the apocalypse, right? Will the officials agree?
She put on a playful smile and said, "From what you're saying, if this is your private base, you're going to let me make the decision?"
Qiu Kan didn't say it directly, but just asked, "Why not enjoy such a good life?"
"Captain Qiu is quite open-minded." Xie Purou stopped and said, "How about we go to my house and talk?"
As a shop owner, she is easily watched from outside, so it is inconvenient for her to talk about anything.
"I'm fine with that. I'll listen to you," Qiu Kan said nonchalantly. "But aren't you worried about what others will say about us? We're a single man and a single woman."
"This is my territory, I can do whatever I want." I hate people who gossip the most. Besides, it's the end of the world, not a return to ancient times.
It’s okay for Qiu Kan, a grown man, as long as the store owner doesn’t mind.
Xie Pu Rou really didn't care. The place where she lived was not a B&B center. There were no buildings, shops or snacks near the courtyard, and not many people hung out there.
"Are you here purely to buy goods? Or are you staying here for a few days?"
"First, we need to restock the goods. They've already gone back," Qiu Kan said calmly. "Second, I want to stay here for a few days. I also want to enjoy this good life once in a while."
Xie Pu Rou didn't ask any more questions, only saying, "Since we're not in a hurry to talk, why don't we go have a hot pot first? After we finish eating hot pot, we can come to my place to talk about things."
The main reason was that she wanted to eat. After a long trip, she came back craving for everything.
Qiu Kan agreed immediately: "Sure, I'll treat you."
"Go away, this is my territory, and you're a big customer, so I'll treat you." Xie Pu Rou said happily.
Anyway, there is a quota for treating big customers to dinner. It’s just a meal, but the points earned can be used to open another restaurant!
When the two of them arrived at the hot pot restaurant, it was already packed. Qiu Kan lamented, "The hot pot smells so good, no wonder there's no room left."
"I'm the owner, am I worried about not having enough space?" Xie Purou waved her hand.
Qiu Kan raised his eyebrows: "Are you trying to take someone else's position by force?"
"...Can't I reserve a table just for myself as the owner?"
Although it is not a private room, it is still a small privilege for her as the owner of the store.
"Following the owner, I can enjoy spicy food and delicious drinks." A smile appeared on Qiu Kan's face.
"That's right." Xie Purou raised her head proudly.
Xie Purou led him to an empty table and asked Qiu Kan to sit down.
"Sit down and see what you want to eat."
She taught Qiu Kan how to order dishes and chose the base of the hot pot first. Qiu Kan frowned and said, "I want to eat them all."
Xie Purou said generously, "Then give me one portion each."
She asked, "By the way, when did you come to purchase the goods?"
Qiu Kan sat up straight and said, "Just now, I just finished shopping and turned around to see you guys." While waiting to eat, he smelled the aroma coming from the next table and his whole body became uneasy.
just?
Xie Purou opened the page after hearing this. Wow, Qiu Kan is like a power bank!!!
Now she had over 4,000 Portuguese coins in her account! She could now open small-scale car rental shops and hot spring resorts, even if they couldn't build them on a large scale.
Thinking of this, I was even happier about Qiu Kan's arrival.
"Well, do you think this is enough? How about I try to add some more to the menu?"
"Okay, I can eat a lot." Qiu Kan was very surprised by her change, but when he heard there was something else to eat, he put it out of his mind.
